Research on Project Audit Management from the Perspective of Scientific Research Innovation in Universities 2019 4th International Symposium on Management, Economics, E-business and Marketing (ISMEEM 2019) Research on Project Audit Management from the Perspective of Scientific Research Innovation in Universities Chen Di Minjiang University, Fujian Fuzhou, 350108, China Keywords: University; Research; Project; Audit; Management; Innovation; Abstract: With the rapid development of China's economy and society, the requirements and support for scientific research projects in universities have increased as well as the research work of the Chinese universities has also been tremendously improved, contributing to the improvement of China's comprehensive national strength, since the implementation of the Outline of Technology Development Plan (2006-2020), the funds for scientific research projects in universities have grown rapidly and colleges and universities have paid more attention to the audit management of the research project funds which is said that the development of the new era is the audit of the university research funding which makes the management to bring in new challenges. To this end, the auditors should keep pace with the times, to continuously improve on their financial auditing management capabilities and improve on the auditing efficiency of the university research funding to fully adapt to the development and progress of the new era. 1. Introduction Due to the increase of international competitive pressure, China attaches more importance to the scientific research work of colleges and universities based on the fact that, the scientific research and innovation achievements are of great significance to the development of a country, colleges and universities are also the important bases for cultivating the scientific research and creative talents and developing the scientific research and innovation technologies that the investment in scientific research projects in universities is increasing by day. However, the increase in research funding will cause many problems in funding auditing and auditing management, which will bring great troubles and obstacles to the scientific research platform but in order to solve the problems brought about by the management and auditing of scientific research funds, the auditors of the colleges and universities must clarify the existing problems and to innovate the methods of the audit management and effectively solve the audit management problems and improve on the work efficiency of the scientific research projects in all colleges and universities. 2. Current status of audit management of the scientific research projects in the universities 2.1. The lack of modern auditing methods In the era of large data usage and in the rapid development of information technology, there are still many colleges and universities' project auditing systems that uses old auditing methods, such as the audit books [1]. This seriously backward audit method that can't keep up with the development of the time, it also can't adapt to the complicated situation of the current university project funds because the old audit method not only increases the difficulty and work practice of the auditors, but also does not guarantee the timeliness and accuracy of the project audit. In this regard, the colleges and universities should keep in pace with the time, and explore more diversified fund audit methods, to build an innovative audit system and to ensure the efficiency and high quality of the university research project funding audits which can effectively avoid the risks of the audit. Copyright © (2019) Francis Academic Press, UK 297 DOI: 10.25236/ismeem.2019.059 2.2. The lack of sufficient auditing power At present, the current status of audit management of research projects in various universities in China is that there is no complete system of targeted audit management and the corresponding company is responsible because most of them are involved in related services such as auditing by third parties, this is not convenient for the timely detection and rectification of the audit management issues. In addition, colleges and universities have a great demand for such professional auditing personnel, while in reality, the college auditors mostly audit economic revenues and expenditures, and there is no professional project fund auditor as there have been so much work in the audit management and there are still cases in which the auditors have multiple positions and are often occupied by cumbersome tasks such as administrative logistics, that has created situation in which the auditing power of colleges and universities becomes extremely scarce. 2.3. The lack of accurate project budget The capital budget system includes project budget, departmental budget, basic expenditure budget, etc. [2]. The accurate project budget is very important for the smooth progress of the scientific research projects in the universities. However, in the actual project capital budget of the university, it only includes part of the project budget and part of the basic expenditure budget which does not cover all of the capital budget, nor does it have a precise project budget system but the consequence of this status quo is that university, the researchers will make inaccurate budgets for the target setting when conducting the relevant scientific research work, which will have a major impact on the follow-up work and greatly affect the efficiency of the audit project work in the university. 2.4. Some scientific researchers have a weak sense of responsibility and lack of integrity In the audit and management of the scientific research project funds in colleges and universities, there are still cases of staff appropriation and enrollment of project funds. For example, the scientific research personnel will allocate the research labor to the cards of the arranged personnel, and then let these people return to themselves in addition, there is a phenomenon of colluding with the audit management personnel and using the fake bills to collect research funds which has a great relationship with the lack of the audit management systems and systems for scientific research projects the in universities and the audit work of this university research project has added enormous difficulties and obstacles. 3. The project audit management research from the perspective of scientific research innovation in colleges and universities 3.1. Innovative idea of the audit management If you want to improve the audit management level of colleges and universities, it is necessary to keep pace with the time, make sure to abandon the old and backward management mode and innovate the audit management ideas in view of the current status of the audit management in colleges and universities in order to carry out the innovation and reform on this basis, and we must also focus on promoting the systematic, comprehensive and effective audit management [3]. At the same time, we must pay attention to the diversification and enrichment functions of the audit management in colleges and universities. For example, we can close the audit management work from “management funds” to “management funds development”, so that the audit management system will have certain macroscopic and sustainable development because the audit management has laid a solid fund foundation for the establishment and development of various scientific research target projects in the universities and has greatly improved on the utilization rate of funds. 3.2. Integration of audit accounting system In the context of the Internet era, the audit management system of colleges and universities should also pursue the trend of the time, and focus on promoting the development of the audit 298 management information, network and intelligent synchronization and integrate on the audit accounting system in order to strengthen and facilitate the audit management [4]. For example, colleges and universities should integrate their own ERP accounting system computerization, “cloud accounting” platform and other auditing accounting systems and form an interactions and contacts with the relevant departments, that the enterprises and units will also establish an audit management of large data system to achieve effective Sharing of resources. In addition, the universities can also establish a corresponding audit management service systems in the cloud, also establish a corresponding application platforms and strengthen the budget and analysis of their own audits while compressing and simplifying the work procedures of the staff. 3.3. Strengthening the financial risk management work and capital budget The research projects and investment scale of colleges and universities are generally large, so the colleges and universities have high requirements for the liquidity of funds. This requires strengthening the management of financial risks and the budget of funds in the daily audit management work, improving on the financial risk management system, especially to strengthen the awareness of the relevant staff on financial risk management while the university audit system pays attention to the content of promotion, education and training part. In addition, colleges and universities should also carry out reforms and innovations in the previous financial management risk forecasting and capital budget omissions, and build an audit “risk point” monitoring, investigation and early warning mechanisms to timely investigate problems and identify hidden dangers. And establish work plans for problems and omissions, report them, and discuss and also summarize

The phonetic phenomenon “ping split into yin and yang” 平分阴阳 is one of the most important changes of Chinese tones in the early modern Chinese, which is reflected clearly in Zhongyuan Yinyun 中原音韵 by Zhou Deqing 周德清 (1277-1356) in the Yuan Dynasty. The authors of this paper think the phe- nomenon “ping split into yin and yang” should not have occurred so late as in the Yuan Dynasty, based on previous research results and modern Chinese dialects, making use of historical comparative method and rhyming books. The changes of tones have close relationship with the voiced and voiceless initials in Chinese, and the voiced initials have turned into voiceless in Song Dynasty, so it could not be in the Yuan Dynasty that ping split into yin and yang, but no later than the Song Dynasty.

JENCO London School of Economics and Political Science ABSTRACT. This article examines Chen Di’s text Record of Formosa (Dongfan ji), the earliest first-hand account in any language of the indigenous people of Formosa (now called Taiwan). Recent commentators have viewed Chen’s text as a key elaboration of Chinese imperial dis- course and its various tropes of hierarchical difference. In contrast, I argue that Chen reads the perceived cultural differences between his society and Taiwan’s indigenous peoples as evidence of the contingency, rather than inevitable superiority, of a historical story that produces the outcome of ‘civilization’. Building on a broader understanding of Chen’s intellectual biography and his extant works, I show that Chen Di places the indigenes along a different timeline in which they forge their own contingent history parallel to, rather than behind, that of a civilizational centre. By doing so, Chen’shistorical narrative resists aligning their society with Han Chinese forms of development and offers a glimpse of how late Ming syncretic thought could produce an account of legitimate otherness.

  • 1 INTRODUCTION Accounts of Taiwan and Its History Have Been
    INTRODUCTION Accounts of Taiwan and its history have been profoundly influenced by cultural and political ideologies, which have fluctuated radically over the past four centuries on the island. Small parts of Taiwan were ruled by the Dutch (1624-1662), Spanish (1626-1642), Zheng Chenggong (Koxinga)1 and his heirs (1662-1683), and a large part by Qing Dynasty China (1683-1895). Thereafter, the whole of the island was under Japanese control for half a century (1895-1945), and after World War II, it was taken over by the Republic of China (ROC), being governed for more than four decades by the authoritarian government of Chiang Kai-shek and the Kuomintang (KMT), or Chinese Nationalist Party,2 before democratization began in earnest in the late 1980s. Taiwan’s convoluted history and current troubled relations with the People’s Republic of China (PRC), which claims Taiwan is “a renegade province” of the PRC, has complicated the world’s understanding of Taiwan. Many Western studies of Taiwan, primarily concerning its politics and economic development, have been conducted as an 1 Pinyin is employed in this dissertation as its Mandarin romanization system, though there are exceptions for names of places which have been officially transliterated differently, and for names of people who have been known to Western scholarship in different forms of romanization.

IT IS INTENDED TO BE OF USE TO STUDENTS OF THE LANGUAGE WHO WISH EITHER TO CHECK THE REFERENCE OF A PARTICULAR ARTICLE OR TO GAIN A PERSPECTIVE INTO SOME SPECIAL TOPIC OF RESEARCH. THE FIELD OF CHINESE LINGUIS- TICS HAS BEEN UNDERGOING RAPID DEVELOPMENT IN RECENT YEARS. IT IS HOPED THAT THE PRESENT WORK WILL NURTURE THIS DEVELOP- MENT BY PROVIDING A SENSE OF THE SIZABLE SCHOLARSHIP IN THE FIELD» BOTH PAST AND PRESENT. IN SPITE OF REPEATED CHECKS AND COUNTERCHECKS, THE FOLLOWING PAGES ARE SURE TO CONTAIN NUMEROUS ERRORS OF FACT, SELECTION AND OMISSION. ALSO» DUE TO UNEVENNESS IN THE LONG PROCESS OF SELECTION, THE COVERAGE HERE IS NOT UNIFORM. THE REPRESENTATION OF CERTAIN TOPICS OR AUTHORS IS PERHAPS NOT PROPORTIONAL TO THE EXTENT OR IMPORTANCE BIBLIOGRAPHY OF CHINESE LINGUISTICS ]g9 OF THE CORRESPONDING LITERATURE. THE COVERAGE CAN BE DIS- CERNED TO BE UNBALANCED IN TWO MAJOR WAYS. FIRST. THE EMPHASIS IS MORE ON-MODERN. SYNCHRONIC STUDIES. RATHER THAN ON THE WRITINGS OF EARLIER CENTURIES. THUS MANY IMPORTANT MONOGRAPHS OF THE QING PHILOLOGISTS. FOR EXAMPLE, HAVE NOT BEEN INCLUDED HERE. THOUGH THESE ARE CERTAINLY TRACE- ABLE FROM THE MODERN ENTRIES. SECOND, THE EMPHASIS IS HEAVILY ON THE SPOKEN LANGUAGE, ALTHOUGH THERE EXISTS AN ABUNDANT LITERATURE ON THE CHINESE WRITING SYSTEM. IN VIEW OF THESE SHORTCOMINGS, I HAD RESERVATIONS ABOUT PUBLISHING THE BIBLIOGRAPHY IN ITS PRESENT STATE. HOWEVER, IN THE LIGHT OF OUR EXPERIENCE SO FAR, IT IS CLEAR THAT A CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF TIME AND EFFORT IS STILL NEEDED TO PRODUCE A COMPREHENSIVE BIBLIOGRAPHY THAT IS AT ONCE PROPERLY BALANCED AMD COMPLETELY ACCURATE (AND, PERHAPS, WITH ANNOTATIONS ON THE IMPORTANT ENTRIES).
